I'm curious...if you could travel anywhere in time, where would you go? Why?

I recently came across a particularly thorough version of this prompt in Serve God, Save the Planet by J. Matthew Sleeth, MD. I share his words with you now and invite your response:

"I have a time machine. It will take you anywhere in time you choose to go. Wherever you go, you will be safe. You will speak whatever language you need to and will have whatever money or currency you need. You will be gone for one month. Wherever you go, you may choose the specific socio-economic group and situation you wish to live in. However, if the place you choose has a system of injustice, you are not allowed to make changes. When the time machine returns you to the present, the only things you can bring back are your memories."
